After you have brushed away some of the larger chunks you can now take your clean cloth and spray it with WD-40.

Now use the cloth soaked with WD-40 and gently wipe away the rest of the cement stain. You can do this in circular motions. The WD-40 should be able to work quickly as it has the chemical make up to clean as well as lubricate.

You should continue to repeat these steps if the cement is still on the plastic trim. If you have a stubborn cement stain you can always try to use the soft brush soaked with the WD-40, instead of the clean cloth, to proceed with the cement stain removal process.
